1 Samuel 12:2

Samuel's Charge To Israel

¹ And Samuel said to all Israel, You see that I have given ear to everything you said to me, and have made a king over you. ² And now, see, the king is before you: and I am old and grey-headed, and my sons are with you: I have been living before your eyes from my early days till now. ³ Here I am: give witness against me before the Lord and before the man on whom he has put the holy oil: whose ox or ass have I taken? to whom have I been untrue? who has been crushed down by me? from whose hand have I taken a price for the blinding of my eyes? I will give it all back to you.
